New Product Highlight: CTMH's Oh Deer! Creative Collection

I have to say I'm a sucker for a classy Christmas look and Oh Deer does not disappoint. This creative collection is chocked full of elegant images, colors and embellishments. Lets start out by looking at the collections featured colors...some of my favorite I might add.

Classic Christmas colors with a bit of pop. When I received the elements to play with this collection I was immediately satisfied and that was before even laying my hands on them. I couldn't stop thinking of all the possibilities. Here are some of the different elements in the Oh Deer! Creative Collection.

 and here are some of the stamp sets that go with this collection.

as you can see by the red outline the Season of Magic set can be used in conjunction with the Cricut Flower Market Cartridge.

I started off with this simple easel card and tried adding the Oh Deer! Complement die-cut foiled deer to the top and then went non-CTMH with a bit of floral holly. What you can't see in the image below is that the Cricut Cut sentiment is raised with a piece of 3-D foam tape to give it dimension.

if you like the easel card you can click HERE to download the simple instructions on how to make one for yourself.

Here are the supplies I used for this card.

Oh Deer Easel Card Supplies:

X7214D - Oh Deer! Coordinating Cardstock
Z3262 Rustic Home Fundamentals
Z2816 Cranberry Ink Pad

Next I dove into the Workshop Your Way (WYW). I'm positing pictures of what I created although I haven't put pictures into them yet as I'm fully caught up with my Christmas scrapbooking and I think I'll use these pages for this years Christmas pictures.

Here is the downloadable directions for the WYW. Once you view it you can see I changed up the Layout 3 pages a bit and used some PML cards to break up the picture spaces.

Here are the add on option cards. I recreated these but used a different stamp set then shown here.

Instead I used the M1127 Hand Lettered Christmas Holiday stamp set and A1170 Doodled Designs Flair. I also added Z679 Liquid Glass for the holly berries to give them dimension.

Also with the WYW they have an add on PML insert. This is shown above and you can see details when you download the WYW direction sheets.

There is also a Card Workshop that you can do using the Oh Deer! Creative Collection. HERE is the downloadable directions and the samples of these cards are shown below.

Here are more samples using the Oh Deer! Creative Collection.

There are four new card making kits and four new scrapbooking Workshops Your Way kits.

There is yet another new Cricut Collection. This one is only available in Digital for use with the Cricut Explore and the Cricut Explore Air. It is called City Sidewalks and complements the City Sidewalks products beautifully. 

Of course there are countless NEW stamp sets to match all the NEW papers. There are two new embossing folders specifically for Christmas and snowflakes. There are four new thin cuts also for Christmas and the snowy season. There are two new Cut Above kits. One in a card and one in a tag. 

But my favorite...ok nearly my favorite is for those planner girls out there. There are NEW Everyday Life items too. There is now an Everyday Life album in Faux Leather in the NEW AI Color of the Year, Sea Glass. Yes and I'm telling you its soft as butter and absolutely beautiful. If you have the old Everyday Life album you know its starting to look a bit worn and needs to be replaced. Well now there are two options. The NEW stripes (Z9979) from the NEW AI released last month and now this Sea Glass in Faux Leather.
